The tallest man-made structure in the world, the Burj Khalifa’s design is
inspired by patterning systems in Islamic architecture, most notably the
spiral minaret found in some mosques where the spirals grow slender as the
building rises. Floors 77 to 108 are the highest parts of the building used
for permanent residences.
